Ch 1 at the beginning of the row counts as a stitch for this head band.

How to make the right size

Measure the head circumference with a tape measure and note down the number. Generally, you would need to make a headband 2-3 inches shorter than the head circumference as the headband will stretch. For example, if your head circumference is 20 inches, you’ll need to make a headband that is 18 inches in length. It also depends on the type of yarn and the stitch being used, it will stretch differently.
